I am telling stories to become myself.
I don't remember the land of my birth
Neither do I know a friend from a foe
They all look alike.
I am telling stories to keep myself awake.
I never knew before that stories
Can save or lose lives.
But now, everything depends on a story
And I am telling stories to ensure that I am alive.
I no longer care if they are telling lies or not
I only check how they are telling :
Everything now depends on the how of it.
A lifetime is not enough to tell you
How well you must take care
To tell a story well
If at all you care to tell it.
